Bouquet Valentin 12 Classic Roses Vr3 Box

Caring for cut roses delivered in a long box with aquatubes is easy and ensures they stay fresh and beautiful. Here's how to handle and care for them:

Upon Arrival

• Carefully unbox the roses, being gentle to avoid damaging the blooms or stems.
• Keep the aquatubes attached to the stems until you’re ready to arrange them. These provide initial hydration.

Preparation

• Remove the aquatubes and trim 1–2 inches off the stems at a 45-degree angle with sharp knife. This allows better water absorption.
• Strip off any leaves that will be below the waterline to prevent bacteria growth.

Watering and Vase Setup

• Fill a clean vase with lukewarm water.
• Immediately place the roses into the vase after trimming to prevent air from blocking water uptake.

Placement

• Display the roses in a cool location, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts.
• Avoid placing them near ripening fruits, which release ethylene gas that can shorten their lifespan.

Daily Maintenance

• Change the water every 1–2 days to keep it fresh.
• Recut the stems slightly each time you change the water to ensure optimal hydration.

If You’re Not Ready to Display

• Keep the roses few hours in their box with aquatubes intact and store them in a cool area away from heat or cold drafts.
• Arrange them in a vase as soon as possible to maximize their longevity.

Extra Tips for Long-Lasting Roses

• If roses start to droop, submerge the stems in warm water for about 30 minutes to rehydrate them.
• Ensure your vase is not overcrowded; roses need space to bloom fully.
